I don’t think the Grateful Dead would be referred to as a “live electronic dance band.”

Assuming it’s a band most have heard of I was leaning toward Daft Punk, but maybe the Prodigy?

Daft Punk doesn't have a singer and unless it was a very early show they wouldn't have seen them smile. Most big beat shows wouldn't have a dedicated vocalist. I'd guess Underworld or Prodigy, but lean toward Underworld.

Ah, missed that bit entirely, was going mostly on the story of being front and centre and being smiled at - it's an apocryphal story for TGD.

Now I"m thinking, the mention of digital formats doesn't make much sense either ^_^;

Thats what came to mind. Daft Punk, the Alive 2007 recording
